Several months ago, a lone Cardassian endeavoured to start a new life on a Federation world, far from the history of his people and his crimes. Breloc Tejar had never intended on getting caught, but an oversight in his forged documentation led to his detention and, ultimately, his upcoming trial as a war criminal for atrocities carried out decades earlier during the Occupation of Bajor. Fast forward several months and Tejar’s trial has caused countless headaches for Starfleet Command, the Federation Council and even President Bezar himself. With concerns for the criminals safety, the Federation Council has ruled that his trial should take place on the more neutral world of Trill, much to the disdain of the Bajoran people. Tensions continue to rise, with protests about the trial even reaching the streets of Earth’s capital itself.
Meanwhile, following the loss of the USS Ulysses, the court martial of Captain Colby Drayton finally concludes aboard Deep Space Ten. With the Captain free to resume his career, his posting as the new commander of the Nogura is confirmed just in time for her next mission. Starfleet Command orders the USS Nogura to escort Trill’s Ambassador to Bajor in an effort to placate the Bajoran people and take some of the heat out of the highly contentious situation, however, it quickly becomes apparent that tensions are being stoked by a new wave of anti-Federation propaganda on Bajor’s streets. Nogura’s new mission becomes an investigative one as they try to track down those responsible for stoking the fires of dissent among the planet’s populace...
